These are the best chicken tamales you will ever eat. In this recipe Im teaching you how to make them. The masa is so soft and flavorful and put together with the green sauce adds even more flavor and a slight kick of heat to make the perfect combination. Even though the recipe is a bit long, it is not complicated to make and the outcome is sure worth the wait. This is just another example of how rich our Mexican food culture is and I am so proud to share it with you. Get ready to fall in love at first taste!

First off, your videos are the best on you tube for authentic Mexican food. They are clear concise and unlike most other videos on you tube, they are specific to what you are cooking. You don't try to chat or make the video about you. We finally took the plunge and made both of your tamale recipes and they were the best tamales we have EVER had. Thank you for sharing and some day I hope you make a masa video. All things masa. Thanks again!

I've been making tamales for almost 50 years. I loved your masa. I would of added a little more ingredientes to make it more flavorful but I could tell the texture was on point. It didn't stick to your hands and it didn't stick to the bowel. Indicación that it wasn't going to stick to the husk. Good job.

Awesome. Thank you for this. I am getting ready to make tamales for the first time. My mama told me to ask my grandma how to make them, and neither ever taught me. They are both gone now. I am going with mostly my own recipes, taking bits and pieces from different people and places, but this is the first video that shows me that I can close up my tamales without having the husk stuck in the middle. it takes a few extra seconds, but will be totally worth it to me, as I can’t stand having to peel pieces of masa off my tamales. I have always felt, you should be able to just unwrap and eat. I am following you now, and will be checking out the rest of your videos soon.

I just finished steaming them today for dinner! The recipe was pretty easy to understand and everything was simple to make (except for the wrapping, but it was my first type wrapping them so that’s understandable). I don’t really care for tamales personally but I made them for my mom and brother who really like tamales and they love them. My brother is pretty picky about food but he loved these so i say it works! Although I wrap the tamales and steam them right before eating instead of steaming them all at once because we have a small steamer that only fits about 4, and I think it works better than reheating the tamales in a microwave later on.

yuppp my mom makes these types of tamales almost every month. My grandma passed this recipe only to my mom. It's my favorite and never tried any tamales after that.

I cant wait to try this. The only tamales i have had are the ones that come in a jar by Hormel. Those are in an oily tomato sauce and filled with beef. Since we live in Costa Rica now, they use banana leaves in place of the corn husks. Corn husks are hard to find here so I will try the Costa Rican way and change the leaves. And the green chili sauce? I have been searching for this for at least 15 years. A favorite restaurant in Nashville TN used to serve this with homemade chips. The chef told me how to make it but I had forgotten and wow Love tomatillos too! Love it and mucho mucho gracias!
